After years of just playing Fifa and Pro Evo ive decided to take the plunge into football management and went out and bought Football Manager, was a bargain for a tenner and now I'm well and truly addicted.

My problem is Ive started a season with Liverpool and people are probably aware that you start with a 2 million pound budget, to make funds I sold Lucas for around 10 million and then bought Angel Di Maria and a Brazilian called Mota to add an attacking threat.

The only problem is Ive found my best formation to be 4-2-3-1 and I'm stuck playing Plessis in midfield, and he makes lots of mistakes that causes me to concede a lot of goals. I'm currently in December and the transfer window is coming up, Ive got a budget of about 6.3 million and a wage budget of about £30,000 after Landon Donnovan comes in as Torres can't hit a barn door from two yards for me. :(

I just need a defensive midfielder that can stop me from conceding as many goals, Im currently sixth and the table and 11 points behind the leaders Man City, I put in a bid for Sportings Miguel Veloso but they came back asking me to pay around 8m and I don't really want to have to sell to buy because although our results aren't always going great my squad has a good harmony to it and all the players seem to get on ;)

sorry if this is in the wrong thread to post in, or if a similar question has been posted, cheers in advance guys.
 
Anthony Annan or try and bargain down the remaining on Veloso
 
Anthony Annan from Rosenberg(sp)

Moussa Sissoko from Toulouse

Gilbero Silva Panathanikos(sp)

all great def midfielders Annan is quality for Liverpool..well for me anyways
 
Annan, Sandro or Sissoko.

If Torres is struggling for goals also, play him as a complete forward. He won't stop scoring.
 
mousa sissoko turns into one of the best midfielders in the game and you can get him for 10m early on.

gilberto silva is solid enough for the first couple of seasons, and you can get him for about 2m

M diarra is usually transfer listed and you can get him from real for about 4m and he is solid enough.
 
Cheers for the quick responses! I've put a bid in for Sissoko as when I searched for Annan he didn't come up.

I'm currently playing Torres as a poacher, I'll try him as a complete forward. Cheers Alex.
 
Also, if you want to avoid selling to buy try using "pay monthly" clauses.
 
Go back in for Veloso, hes overrated in FM and is class, 6 mill bid with 3 mill over 2 years should bag him, but try less and work up. Its ok to go over wage budget if you have to.

And play torres as complete forward > attack, bagged 35 in 48 for me.
